Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.
Yes, anyone can set up a parkrun and the organisation will help you.
This post about parkrun explains what it is and has a link to the parkrun website. healthunlocked.com/couchto5....
Parkrun exemplifies people power and is a wonderful worldwide movement.
This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.
Enjoy your journey.
You need to contact the central team for parkrun. I think anyone can set one up. My friend talked to the local parkrun director to find out about setting one up. He never did 🤣
There should be one in Bolton already. If you want to set up another, the organisers of the current one might be able to give you advice.
Go to the website How do I start a parkrun, you need a lot of organisations and it is quite expensive as well.
